Praise
"David Kalat’s writing style is easy to follow and well-paced. With very little knowledge of or interest in horror films, I initially thought this was going to be a difficult read. I needn’t have worried…" – PopCultureShock
"The resulting critical eye and even handed explorations of the artistic, cultural, and economic context for works popularized by the explosion in interest in The Ring presents a convincing case for developing an respect for the aesthetic and the minds behind it. " – Ain’t it cool News
"Thanks to Kalat, I know that I’ll be haunting the video store, clutching my already crumpled, scribbled list." –Fangoria
"Kalat doesn’t pander to fanboys here; he looks at the phenomenon of Japanese-style horror movies in an objective light. Highly recommended." –Popculture Shock
"Kalat’s prose is a pleasure to read. A very detailed and balanced account warmly recommended to all film fans." –Japan Navigator
"A very rich and thorough treatment of the history, details, trends and people behind exemplar films of this genre. I can in fact wholly recommend this book to anyone even slightly interested." –SaruDama
